Filter by:Hypertension, particularly if poorly controlled, appears related to an increased risk of open angle glaucoma, (the high tension type of glaucoma is characterized as optic nerve degeneration with ocular hypertension). so this study will search response of glaucoma to breathing exercise
The goal of the study is to prospectively evaluate and compare Hydrus microstent to the iStent Inject Wide in combination with cataract surgery in patients with mild to moderate open angle glaucoma. Hydrus and iStent are the two FDA approved trabecular meshwork targeting microstents to treat open angle glaucoma in conjunction with cataract surgery.
It is a phase III, multi-center, randomized, single-blind (to evaluator), parallel, and positive-controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of OPC-1085EL in the treatment of primary open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in Chinese subjects. It is planned that 240 subjects (120 in each group) will be randomly assigned to receive OPC-1085EL or 0.005% latanoprost ophthalmic solution (latanoprost) at a ratio of 1:1.
A prospective, multicenter, randomized, single-masked, post-market clinical trial comparing cataract surgery in conjunction with ab-interno canaloplasty utilizing the iTrack Advance canaloplasty device (Nova Eye, Inc.) to cataract surgery only in patients with mild to moderate, primary open angle glaucoma. Subjects will be followed for 12 months.
The objective of this early feasibility clinical study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the GORE Glaucoma Drainage Implant (2 configurations) in subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma that is uncontrolled by hypotensive medications or for which conventional incisional glaucoma surgery would be more likely to fail due to scarring.
To evaluate safety and the ocular hypotensive effect of STN1012600 ophthalmic solution 0.002% alone or in combination with Timolol ophthalmic solution 0.5% for 52 weeks in subjects with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
Highlights the high-frequency deep sclerotomy (HFDS) as a promising ab-interno surgery in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients and evaluates the efficacy and safety of the procedure.
Multicentric evaluation of best corrected visual acuity of the XEN implant versus classic trabeculectomy in open angle glaucoma subjects
Glaucoma is the second most common cause of blindness in the world, second only to cataracts. This study will assess how safe and effective a glaucoma gel stent is when implanted using the ab externo approach. Adverse events and intraocular pressure will be assessed. XEN45 is an approved device for the treatment of glaucoma implanted using the ab interno approach (inside the eye). XEN45 implanted using the ab externo approach (outside the eye) is being studied in this study. Approximately 65 participants aged 45 years or older with open-angle glaucoma will be enrolled in this study at approximately 22 sites in the United States. All participants will receive XEN45 implanted using the ab externo approach on Day 1 and will be followed for 12 months. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The safety and effect of the gel stent on your glaucoma will be checked by medical assessments and eye examinations.
Glaucoma is the leading cause of sight impairment and blindness worldwide. It is a long-term eye disease which can cause permanent loss of sight and sometimes blindness and affects 1 in 50 people over 50 years of age. Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is the most common type of glaucoma. This tends to develop slowly over many years, caused by the drainage pathway in the eye gradually becoming blocked over time due to a build-up of fluid. This build-up causes pressure in the eye to increase (intra-ocular pressure (IOP)), which then damages the important nerve at the back of the eye called the optic nerve, resulting in vision loss. Current treatments offered for glaucoma (eye drops or laser surgery), aim to lower eye pressure and have shown to slow vision loss, however, visual disability and blindness rates remain unacceptably high and many patients continue to lose vision despite these treatments, suggesting that the optic nerve in some patients is more easily damaged. Recent research has looked at cells called 'mitochondria'. These cells produce most of the energy in the body, and the nerve cells in the eye need a lot of energy to function and survive. Nicotinamide (NAM) is a form of Vitamin B3 and evidence so far has shown that mitochondrial function can be improved with this treatment. The aim of this trial is to find out whether taking oral NAM when used with current standard treatment for lowering pressure in the eye, can reduce the amount of sight loss in recently diagnosed patients with OAG, and evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of NAM. The trial will use two groups of people recently diagnosed with glaucoma and who have normal care (drops or laser) to lower eye pressure. Using a method of randomisation (randomly allocated to each group using a computer system), one group will be given NAM and the other group will be given a placebo or 'dummy pill'. This is a double masked trial meaning the participant nor the Investigator will be told which treatment group patients have been allocated to.
